medical review or malpractice

I've been offered the opportunity for a desk job with a society who focus on the needs of teenagers with epilepsy. I'd like to go for this as it would be really good to actually work for a company that gives a damn about the people it works for. The position is going to be quite hands-on, but my experience with epilepsy is limited and I'm trying to educate myself as best I can on the subject prior to the final interview, but there is so much information and opinion out there and I desperately need to focus on what is important to the sufferers and carers so that I can gear my approach to their best benefit.

Any snippets or pearls of wisdom or decent links would be appreciated

Thanks

I have asthma, I'm 24, and I was considering getting the pneumonia shot (which supposedly protects you from bacterial pneumonia for up to possibly 10 years). Is it generally safe for someone with asthma to get this shot? Please only reply if you know or if you know and have a link to a website that backs up your answer. Thanks a lot. :)

I know that one uses Computer and the other uses Radio waves. I did a cat scan without contrast and it showed liver enlarged. (Radiologist said) Doctor never seen it since it got lost. He sent me for another cat scan with contrast and it was normal. Liver enzymes were slightly elevated. I was still in pain so I went to the hospital and they did a songram which showed the liver enlarged. I want to know how come it didn't show up enlarged on the cat scan but on the sonogram it did? Liver tests showed normal. Would anything different show up if I took an abdominal MRI? I took an MRI of the spine because the doctor thinks it might be a pinched nerve and he is not worried about the liver because the cat scan came out normal. Who do I trust? The Cat Scan or Sonogram?

I have a this particular dream a few times. I am naked, and a man is holding me by the ankles over a balcony.
It is horrific and I am frightened, as I see people gathering below watching.
I seemed to be turned on by this a little, am I odd at all?
